Best Comfort Food Restaurants in Pineville

My wife and I first ate at Maggiano’s three weeks ago and just had to come back. Outstanding overall experience. The food and service are second to none. We had Chicken Marsala, Grilled Salmon w/Lemon and Herbs, and the Warm Apple Crustado for dessert! You won’t be disappointed if you go for a meal!

Our table was outstanding!! From the lights, to the wall, it created an atmosphere that was downright cozy. My friend ordered the chicken biscuit, and I ordered the S.E.C with parmesan fries. Annndddd, we had mimosas!!! Good friend, good times, it was truly a magical experience.

The experience was nice and the service was good. Drinks and food were good.

My gf and I got the valentine’s day experience, which was a three course, fixed price dinner option. We both got different things and shared, for a total of 6 dishes and 2 different wines. Literally everything was phenomenal, I’ve been to multiple high end restaurants in my life, including those with Michelin stars, and this was perhaps the best dinner I’ve ever had. Our server, wish I could remember his name, was super charismatic and funny but also incredibly attentive, a real professional. My only singular complaint was the noise level, but that’s mostly because we had an obnoxiously loud party next to us, it was tough to talk with them around but once they wrapped up and left, which was unfortunately at the dessert course, the atmosphere was perfect. Still, we both would rate this a 10/10 experience, I really wasn’t expecting it to be good, I went in with low expectations because most restaurants in Charlotte are middling, but this place is one of the very few worth revisiting.

Just had a killer night at Napa on Providence with a couple of friends. We snagged seats at the bar and dove into the harissa cauliflower, whipped goat cheese, and octopus. The harissa cauliflower had just the right kick, the whipped goat cheese with pickled beets and truffle honey was a creamy delight, and the octopus was tender and flavorful.  Our server, Gigi, was on point—super friendly and knew her stuff. The vibe was laid-back yet classy, making it a perfect spot to unwind. If you’re looking for a place with great food, drinks, and atmosphere, Napa on Providence is a solid choice.
